The Charge Spoon was an instant hit when it was first released. That’s partly down to its low price tag, just £25, but there’s nothing cheap about its performance. In fact, it’s one of the most comfortable going.

The shape of the saddle is spot on. The rear is a generous width, there’s just enough padding along the central section and long nose for steep seated climbs, and optional titanium rails keep the weight down. The cover is synthetic leather with Charge’s logo embossed, and there’s a range of colours to choose from to match your bike.
